Implant treatment planning using a patient acceptance prosthesis, radiographic record base, and surgical template. Part 1: Presurgical phase.
The use of a patient acceptance prosthesis as a radiographic record base after incorporation of a radiopaque medium to optimize information from computed tomography scans for implant planning and prosthodontic design is presented. The patient acceptance prosthesis can also be used as a surgical template. By receiving the patient's acceptance of the prosthesis before computed tomography scans are done, the potential for success is increased.
